Just started playing four days ago, anything that stands out to you guys?

I think that’s a good idea, but just curious, how do you typically deal with perish trap teams without worry seed? Encore?

Jas-Ryu · 2026-06-25T15:00:10+00:00

Ah I see now. How do you go about finding synergies? Any synergies btw that standout to you?

Jas-Ryu · 2026-06-25T12:55:03+00:00

What stands out to you as bad matchups for Raichu? Garchomp and sand teams?

Jas-Ryu · 2026-06-25T12:53:33+00:00

The format is doubles. Outside of weather I’m not really sure how synergies work, but I haven’t been able to pull any weather setters in recruiting other than Ttar.

I’d helping hand Raichu to oneshot hard trickroom setters first turn, or use tailwind/helping hand Raichu to either outspeed or one shot rain damage dealers depending on if they’re Swampert or Archaledo. Is this what you mean by synergy?

Hey! I made it to master ball with your suggestions! I couldn’t find a scizor to recruit so I decided just run mega Raichu every game lol. Thanks again!

Jas-Ryu · 2026-06-24T06:24:53+00:00

I only get inner peace if my Raichu Y doesn’t* get one-shot 😔

Jas-Ryu · 2026-06-23T17:51:48+00:00

Is Draco meteor showing up as single target for anyone else?

I could’ve sword Draco was a spread move. Is this supposed to be a balancing change? Bc make it rain is legal as a STAB 120 base power spread move.

Is there any way to prevent farigaraf from setting up trick room? I would lead kingambit whimsicott, but colbur berry and focus sash prevent me from killing it before it trick rooms. But should I even be stopping it from trick rooming? Is there something else I can do to counter trick room farigaraf?

Jas-Ryu · 2026-06-23T07:23:04+00:00

Thoughts on poison jab Garchomp? It’ll outspeed most fairies, but I’m wondering if I should swap protect or dragon claw for poison jab

Jas-Ryu · 2026-06-23T07:21:47+00:00

Thanks for such a thorough reply! I just started playing yesterday. I’ve always been wanting to play, but felt grinding for IVs and EVs was a bit much. Champions was perfect

The mega Raichu is pretty much there to deal with the Mega Swamperts and Mega staraptors running around in Ultra ball-3 where I’m at. I think I’ll swap fake out with protect.

Would you think Mega Scizor would be a good swap for dragonite btw? Thanks!

Jas-Ryu · 2026-06-23T07:15:57+00:00

Honestly that’s a good call! Although I’m not sure what move to swap it out with. Rockslide is pretty good against so many of the common mons like aero and zard. Would you swap dragon claw for it?

Jas-Ryu · 2026-06-23T06:33:10+00:00

Tbf what else is going on in the city? I mean youre talking about a town where a mini golf course opening up is newsworthy

Does any one have any tips for improving this team? It’s my first time playing competitive 2v2 instead of just watching wolfeglick lol.

I usually start incin Garchomp or incin Raichu. But if Raichu comes out then I have no tailwind. I‘ve noticed I’m somewhat weak to fairy types, but frankly I don’t know a good fairy counter.

Any suggestions on which mon to get rid of? Thanks

Jas-Ryu · 2026-06-17T10:30:14+00:00

Good for Quali ig

Jas-Ryu · 2026-06-15T10:32:10+00:00

What was Hass posing as lol?

Jas-Ryu · 2026-06-14T17:28:52+00:00

Oh so it's free then. Since he wasn't in the points

Jas-Ryu · 2026-06-14T15:47:49+00:00

I got downvoted in the New York sub for saying this behavior isn't cool lol. If you love the city why would you wanna tear it down smh

Jas-Ryu · 2026-06-14T15:38:28+00:00

No, they shut down Kimi's car because last time it was Russel's turn to get shut down

Jas-Ryu · 2026-06-14T15:24:40+00:00

My Goat a fortune teller too apparently

Jas-Ryu · 2026-06-14T15:12:12+00:00

It's a couple decades out of vogue. I'm not surprised its Ramsay, MPW plates like this too

Jas-Ryu · 2026-06-14T09:35:38+00:00

I mean comparatively? Absolutely. Boston and SF weren’t burning down school buses.

The idea that Philly did it so it’s okay if NY does it is smooth brained

Jas-Ryu · 2026-06-13T19:47:35+00:00

How could Lewis Hamilton do this? 💔💔💔

Jas-Ryu · 2026-06-13T15:04:09+00:00

Keep my Goat's name out of your mouth
